Shannon Testnet goes live as Somnia gears up for mainnet launch

Somnia, a high-speed, Ethereum-compatible blockchain, launched its Shannon Testnet today as part of its push toward mainnet readiness. Named after information theory pioneer Claude Shannon, the testnet follows DevNet benchmarks exceeding 1 million transactions per second (TPS), offering developers a scalable platform for real-world applications. The Shannon Testnet introduces multiple third-party validators and staking protocols, enhancing decentralization and security. During DevNet testing, it processed over 3.6 million transactions across 300,000+ unique addresses, with sub-second finality and sub-cent transaction fees. The time is NOW!
